Secretary of State Marco Rubio and U.S. ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker arrived in Brussels Thursday for talks that allies hope will shed light on the U.S.’ future plans in Europe.
Rubio’s arrival comes as European allies and Canada are concerned about President Donald Trump’s readiness to draw closer to Russian leader Vladimir Putin, who sees NATO as a threat. Recent White House comments and insults directed at NATO allies – as well as the military alliance itself – have raised alarm and confusion.
Matters have been made more uncertain by Trump’s new tariffs targeting U.S. friends and foes alike.
